Here we are, Halifax, Feb 14th, Convention Center

It most likely is that most are not aware as well as for many they are so distrustful of the government that they just can't get their hopes up as they have been let down so many times. As well I do not feel that MC did all they could to find and encourage the class members. Hell they were even very slow to reply or choose not to reply to many of those that expressed concerns to them. For the 65 million they are demanding they should have personally contacted every member and ensured they were aware of the settlement details and their rights. They choose to wait things out and there was not much any of us could do about it.

On another note just sent CTV News an email asking them why this is not one of their top stories and letting them know they need to get there and report this most important issue. Thanks to those that are providing updates, I remain atomistic that the Judge will see that the deal with exception of the percentage for legal fees is a good settlement for the veterans. The lawyers true colours will also be displayed as they greedily do all they can to get as much from the veterans as possible, in the end it is my opinion they are not much better than those that stole the money from us in the first place. Reasonable return on the risk they took is not 650 percent of what they expended! For Queen and Country.

Kind of hard to believe but i do not think that we had enough representation by the media and sorry to say it but I asked our law firm to spend some of our 17% and get this situation out there

I don't know jack, I've been told that, but I CAN tell you this, I've had 3B's at my kitchen table, even just last week, that have NEVER heard of this.

Fact by stating in court that 270 members replied kind of cuts the legal representations throat why only 270. Now the public will say exactly the same thing, if the members do not care why should we.

i thought MC was supposedly finding all these lost people? would they not have told them at the same time to write if they had any concerns or supported it?

Interesting fact???????

Or still don't know, over the last six months, I have talked with people that were 3B'd and never heard of this. Many, many people. Probably in the neighbourhood of for every one that knew, at least five didn't.

ya im thinking thats way to low ore do a lot not even care.

propat

Ironically only 270 members of the class responded one way or another, If I was the Judge i would ask myself why only a small number of 7500 class members actually took the time to vent or lay praise. With the multimedia resources available in today's highway of internet email and our postal system why did only 270 respond, I am thinking they where in the dark through the whole process.

Wonder if the Judge ever served?????????????
Or members of his family that have, or would this be a conflict of interest??

So this is going to go on for a couple more years??? Am I wrong.??? I just read it quick ...

Has anyone mentioned the possibility that the GOC pay the legal fees

I can only imagine , they are all fighting for the big bonus right now , that's why he's fighting with Justice Barnes because if the 17.83 % is lowered , so is his Bonus Check
